McKinsey Quarterly: A road map to the future for the auto industry

In one of the latest article published on McKinsey Quarterly on October 2014 by Paul Gao, Russell Hensley, and Andreas Zielke present a road map to the future for the auto industry. In the presented article they suggest that the issues at play in the automotive industry are interrelated. Emerging economies and widespread urbanization they consider that not only will affect global sales and the competitive intensity of the industry but also help to shape its digitization. Regulations will continue to compel innovation. And self-driving technology—one of the industry’s greatest disruptions in the last hundred years – will play out differently in different markets and regions, depending on their regulatory, competitive, and customer landscape. Interrelated uncertainties about these forces will create challenging questions for industry leaders.
Challenging choices that are identified in the article are the following:

Emerging markets.

Demand constraints.

Ownership models.

Competencies and distinctions.

Connectivity.

Mandated standards.

Engaging the public.
